Day 43:
She had some light defoliation done of some old fan leaves that were doing more harm than good.
Today is the first day her tent is no longer flowering any photoperiods. I will be gradually increasing her daylight hours back up to around 18 over the next week or two. After that, the tent will function as a perpetual auto grow from mid-veg until harvest, with initial veging in my other tent. Hopefully no more lighting mistakes when everything is constant and matched up with both of my tents.
Also for the last few days, she reached exactly the same height as her friend Green Crack Auto that was planted at the same time, and at one point GC was about 3x taller! They are neck and neck now, and both looking like they will be beautiful plants.
Day 44:
She is up to 13h of light after a couple days of incrementing the daylight hours. She seems to just be loving life. Not a problem in sight. Just more purple with each passing day π
Day 45:
The purple is beginning to spread into her leaves. It's a fantastic sight to see for sure.
She is up to 21 inches tall today, the same as her birth buddy, Green Crack Auto.
Day 48:
Quite a bit more purple today...
@Hydro_Hiebs, Yes, I do think she is very pretty myself! She still has about 2-3 more weeks left. I made 2 mistakes that both cost her a week in time. 1) Early in flower she was neglected without food or water for a week, and then it took another week to get her back on her feet. 2) Due to space concerns, she was veg'd under 18h, and until last week was flowered under 12h. Since there are no longer any photoperiods blooming with her, last week I began incrementing her daylight hours, and paying attention to PPFD and tip burn. As of today, she is back up to 18h of light per day. In the last few days I have seen a noticeable improvement when she found the missing energy she was looking for.
Basically she lost at least a week from lack of food, and lost at least a week from not reaching her expected DLI for a while.
